How Much Cannabis Can You Buy in Michigan?

Just because cannabis is legal for adult use in Michigan doesn’t mean you can walk into a dispensary and buy in bulk. Like other states with legal cannabis, the Great Lakes State has purchase limits that restrict how much cannabis you can buy each visit. Here’s what you need to know before you head to your local dispensary.

In-state purchase limits for Michigan residents

The Michigan Cannabis Regulatory Agency controls cannabis purchase limits in the state. The agency maintains different purchase limits for medical patients and adult-use consumers. Here’s what you need to know as you plan your dispensary trip.

Purchase limits for medical cannabis patients

Medical cannabis patients can purchase up to 2.5 ounces of cannabis per day, up to a total of 10 ounces per month.

Purchase limits for adult-use consumers

Adult use consumers can purchase up to 2.5 ounces of cannabis per transaction, with a limit of 15 grams per transaction specifically for concentrates. The state hasn’t set a limit on the amount of cannabis you can purchase in a single day, though the regulations specify that adult use consumers may keep up to 10 ounces of cannabis in their home.

How much weed can a non-resident purchase in Michigan?

Adult non-residents can purchase just as much cannabis as a local Michigander can in an adult use dispensary. Michigan does, however, follow unique rules surrounding medical reciprocity, or honoring out-of-state medical cannabis cards. Unlike most other states that have state-wide rules about this, individual dispensaries in Michigan can decide whether they’ll recognize out-of-state medical cannabis cards. Iconic Wellness in Sturgis, MI recognizes out of state medical cannabis cards.

Purchase limits for out-of-state medical cannabis patients

The purchase limits set by an out-of-state patient’s home state apply. For example, if you’re visiting from New Jersey where the patient purchase limit is 3 ounces in a 30-day period, you can buy 3 ounces in Michigan. Since cannabis is legal for adults aged 21 and older, though, cardholders can also shop at adult-use dispensaries and get what they need.

Purchase limits for visiting adult-use consumers

Any adult over the age of 21, including out-of-state visitors, is permitted to purchase up to 2.5 ounces of cannabis per transaction. The possession limit of 2.5 ounces in public, as well as the 10 ounce limit in private residences, applies to everyone in the state, Michigander or not.

Can you go into a dispensary without a card?

Medical cannabis dispensaries in Michigan require a medical cannabis card to shop. Adult-use cannabis dispensaries in Michigan don’t require a medical cannabis card, but you do need government-issued photo ID to get in. Don’t forget your driver’s license, non-driver photo ID, or passport when coming to Iconic! We can’t let you in without a photo ID.

How is cannabis taxed in Michigan?

Shoppers pay a 6% sales tax at adult use dispensaries in Michigan. Additionally, the retailers are subject to a 10% excise tax.

In 2021, Michigan brought in a total of $111 million from the 10% excise tax on more than $1.1 billion of adult-use cannabis sales. A portion of that tax revenue is redistributed to local counties and municipalities to help fund K-12 education and transportation.

What are the cannabis possession laws in Michigan?

According to the Michigan Marihuana Act, patients who hold state-approved medical cannabis cards can have up to 2.5 ounces of cannabis and cannabis products. The following possession limits apply to medical cannabis patients and primary caregivers under Michigan laws:

  • 16 ounces of cannabis-infused products in solid form
  • 7 grams of cannabis-infused products in gaseous form
  • 36 fluid ounces of cannabis-infused product

Adult-use consumers (21+) can have cannabis in their possession in Michigan within the following limits:

  • Up to 10 ounces at home
  • Up to 2.5 ounces outside of their home
  • Up to 15 grams of cannabis concentrates
  • Up to 12 cannabis plants at home

Any adult who possesses more than 2.5 ounces of cannabis in their home must store the excess in a secure container. Possession of more than 2.5 ounces could incur a $500 fine on first offense.

How much cannabis concentrate can I possess in Michigan?

In Michigan, consumers can have up to 15 grams of concentrate at any given time. The same amount can be purchased in a single transaction, but exceeding possession limits in public or private could lead to a fine.

I’ve been about all over the southwestern area for my “bud hubs” but by far Iconic has a larger supply of variety, the prices that I’m aware of are the best within 100 miles. And the customer service is beyond phenomenal… This place has all you will need.
